We’re excited to share some wonderful news—there are two sea turtle nests on our beach! 🎉
As nesting season is underway, this is a great reminder that we all play an important role in protecting these incredible marine visitors and their future hatchlings.
🌙 Keep beaches dark at night by turning off or shielding beachfront lights.
🏖️ Leave beaches clean and flat by filling in holes and knocking down sandcastles before you leave.
🪑 Remove chairs, tents, and beach equipment from the beach each evening.
🚯 Dispose of trash properly and help keep our shoreline clean.
While we celebrate this exciting milestone, we are not sharing the nest location to help protect the turtles and their habitat.
Thank you to our partners and volunteers who work tirelessly to protect sea turtles throughout the Florida Keys. Together, we can help ensure a successful nesting season for these amazing creatures.
